“Seymour’s Big Day,” B.A. DeLong tells the charming story of Seymour, a baby bee who is determined to prove himself to his parents’ and his hive as being capable of handling “big bee” business, so he crafts a secret plan to leave his hive early one morning to embark on a solo adventure. When his journey begins, Seymour feels a mixture of pride and bravery, marveling at the sights and embracing his newfound freedom, until his quest for self-reliance takes an unexpected turn, and he quickly realizes that he might not be quite as ready for big bee responsibilities as he thought. By the end of his ambitious pursuit for independence, Seymour begins to appreciate the security and safety of his hive and the protection provided by his parents’. He ultimately decides that being a baby bee, for now, will suit him just fine.
